I was thrilled to see the North Shore News feature the new 22-part documentary series for North Shore Rescue this week.
I had the honour of editing this entire project. It meant spending months weaving together hours of new interviews, hundreds of photos, and decades of VHS footage.
My goal wasn’t just to make a timeline. It was to take boxes of scattered stories and turn them into something that captures the “ground-pounding” grit that built the team.
In the article, long-time NSR member Allan McMordie notes the urgency to “get some of these stories recorded before we lose some of these people.”
That is exactly why Scrapbook Films exists. Whether it’s a rescue team or a family business, history is perishable. If your story is currently sitting in a box in the basement, it is time to preserve it.
